Hi,
I am looking for a ATV to Plow snow. I don't want to spend a lot of money. I have a very long driveway in the mountains of NY. The driveway is pretty steep. I woul like to buy a ATV with a Snow Plow attachement so I can plow my driveway. What recomendations are there. also what CC's do I need for a steep driveway. will a 250cc Quad work. Do regular tires work or do you need chains around them. Also where are good places besides ebay to buy used ones.
thanks

 

Hello interich. As a kid, I used to plow a steep driveway about 200 yards long. We used a 18hp John Deere garden tractor. It required both chains and wheel weights. We would plow going down the hill and just drive back up. It was not able to plow much snow going up the hill. My current Trailblazer seems to be about the same as the old John Deere. The chains are a great help; however, if I had to plow a hill again, I would add wheel weights. See my pics.
I hope this helps you [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
